president obama staring down, not making eye contact with governor romney nor the audience. that visual cue it's almost accepting the other guy's making a point you need to deal with as opposed to forcefully kind of staring them down in a pose of reputation. you never saw that with president obama tonight. i thought it was a curiously passive performance, and there's a lot of things that mitt romney said tonight that he's never said before. he said i'm not, there's going to be no fax cuts for upper income earners. no cuts to medicare. those are positions we've not heard from governor romney before. he said a lot of specific things in this debate. he's been criticized for not having specifics. some of the specifics were easily challengeable by the president. the president didn't challenge him on the specifics in any way. and again, i think that's, speaks to him playing it very safe. that four corners offensive, that practice prevent defense and mike is right in the sense governor romney got done what he needed to get done is get voters to give him another look. >> rose: peopl

we were told by the flight attendant that we all had to sit down, as well as the romney campaign staff because we were coming in for a landing here in virginia, but the fact that they came to the back of the plane to talk about the president's ad and to talk about what had gone on today, i think it's a sign, wolf, that they felt that they had to respond to what the obama campaign was putting out today in terms of that ad and what the president was saying earlier today at that event. one other thing that ed gillespie said. he said look for mitt romney to go after the president on taxes. that could be a sign, kate, that could be a sign that they're going to be seizing on some comments that vice president joe biden made earlier today when he said, yes, he and the president will be raising taxes by a trillion dollars. now, he did say that that would be on wealthier americans, but the romney campaign and the rnc shortened that to just the part where biden says raising taxes by a trillion dollars. so, there's a sign that i think the romney campaign, mitt romney and paul ryan will be going af
